When airplanes were developed in the early 20th century, the technology developed rapidly. 

Within a matter of a couple of decades, aviation had become a norm for transporting people and delivering mail. 

As flight technology kept improving, people assumed that it would keep improving to the point where everyone would own their own personal airplanes.

…except that never happened.

In the aftermath of the Mexican war for independence, a new bride finds herself alone in a haunted house surrounded by people who don't believe her. It's the plot of Isabel Cañas' debut novel The Hacienda, where she blends romance, terror, and the supernatural to tell a story highly embedded with Mexican culture. In an interview with Weekend Edition Sunday, Cañas told Ayesha Rascoe about the themes she wanted to explore in her novel – colonialism, social status, the syncretism of Catholicism and indigenous practices – and her own fear of darkness.

Every year, people around the world ring in the New Year. 

How they do this, however, can differ radically from place to place. New Year’s traditions tend to be even more varied than Christmas celebrations.

As with Christmas, traditions involve drinks, food, and rituals, but usually with a lot more noise and staying up later. 

Learn more about traditions surrounding how we ring in the New Year on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
